After comfortably beating European Challenge Cup finalists La Rochelle two weeks ago, it's easy to imagine Philippe Saint-André's men kicking themselves. They feel like they belong at the head of Europe's top table, but they only have themselves to blame for falling off it.
Nobody has conceded fewer tries or points per game than the southern French outfit in this season's European Challenge Cup, a daunting prospect for Steve Borthwick's men. Leicester's recent re-emergence as contenders has been wonderful to see, and a trophy would give them further belief to keep on pushing for the heights of old.
Win today and they'll become just the fifth side to win a European Champions and Challenge Cup double.
This should be a cracking contest, so read on as we explain how to watch a Montpellier vs Leicester live stream and watch the European Challenge Cup final - no matter where you are, and for free in some regions around the world.
